It’s The End of The World

Happy New Year! Our civilization and most life on this planet are going extinct. It’s the end of the world, as we know it, and I don’t feel fine. I’m quite angry. Don’t believe me, how about a bunch of Stanford scientists?

Here’s a 13-minute 60 Minutes interview of Stanford scientists, other world researchers, and everyday people warning us about the impending collapse.

Salmon fisheries are collapsing. Water resources are collapsing. Flora and fauna are retreating and dying off faster than ever before, 100 times faster than ever from fossil records.

Stanford scientist Paul Erlich is quoted in the interview as saying, “Humanity is very busily sitting on a limb that we’re sawing off.”

He’s right.

We’re living in the sixth extinction event of the planet, and we’re the cause. Not a comet, not volcanoes, it’s all on us.

I’m part of the problem too

I get it, I’m sitting in my cozy house with all the wonderful amenities of modern life. I have my laptop that was made with mined rare earth minerals. I expect fresh food delivered to my grocery store from thousands of miles away.
